Sun Fire X4600, Installation Manual

Page: 36 / 66

Ensure that grounded AC power cords are plugged into the four AC power connectors on the
back panel of the server and into grounded AC power outlets on
two separate branch circuits (see
Caution above).
When power is connected, the server boots into standby power mode. After the SP boots and is
ready to use, the Power/OK LED on the front panel flashes to indicate standby power mode. For
the LED location, see
“Sun Fire X4640 Server Front Panel Features and Components” on
page 11 .
Note –
Do not apply main power to the rest of the server until you are ready to install or
configure a platform operating system. At this point, standby power is supplied only to the
Graphics Redirect and Service Processor (GRASP or SP for short) board and power supply fans.
To begin the initial SP configuration, see “Communicating With the ILOM and the System
Console” on page 45

How to Power On All Server Components
This procedure powers on all server components and is different from applying standby power,
which powers on the service processor only.
Verify that power cords have been connected and that standby power is on.
In standby power mode, the Power/OK LED on the front panel blinks.
